The selection of the SWGO site was performed as a major milestone of the research and development phase of the project, with the Atacama Astronomical Park in Chile chosen as the primary site for SWGO planning and negotiations, and Imata, in Peru, selected as the alternative site. More than 200 scientists from over 90 [[https://www.swgo.org/SWGOWiki/doku.php?id=collaboration | research institutions]] participate in the SWGO collaboration and contributed to the site selection milestone.
